...review the actual game. I'll keep it simple. It's a mixed bag. Eiyuden manages to capture the feeling of PSone JRPG in a way that's a bit harder to quantify than just visuals. It's clear the inspiration here was much more Suikoden 1 & 2 instead of say, Suikoden 3. The battle mechanics are simple, but enjoyable, the music is great and the voice acting ranges from really good, to...not so great. Some of the pixel art is fantastic, some of it (the running animations for instance) is comedically bad. Maybe on purpose, maybe not. Either way, the mix of "fantastic" to "kinda bad" reminds me a lot of that era. The nostalgic games of your youth weren't perfect either. I do think the delay during menuing is terrible and maybe one of the biggest regular annoyances in the game. I haven't encountered any major bugs, and the game looks fine with the refresh set to 30 fps, although I'm aware of the encounter bug, and it shouldn't be a thing, at least there's a very playable workaround. The translation is hit-or-miss. It's not as godawful as its made out to be, but it's also a good lesson in where localizers should exercise some restraint too. You're not as cute as you think you are. Still, there's more than enough here that should please fans of Suikoden wanting more, more than enough that the game gets right instead of wrong. It's flawed, but it's also cozy, inviting and a rare treat to play something like this as a new release instead of simply retreating back to the well of decades past. I'm no apologist for this game, but I personally found most of its issues apart from the menuing to be minor enough that it's easy to recommend.
